The Hard Knock Life Of An RA

Life as a residence advisor isn't always a walk in the park. This University of Oregon RA was beat up trying to stop a group of men from entering a residence hall. A Umass RA in the Lewis dormitory recently had one of his residents busted for having a drug lab in his dorm. I assume that when this RA signed up he didn't think he would have to deal with one of his residents being the next Timothy Leary

Believe it or not, manufacturing drugs might not be the worst Umass student behavior this month. A group of Umass frat boys harassed students on a "take back the night" march which aims to help fight violence against women. The frat boys yelled and threw water balloons at the students on the march. While one part of me finds their actions deplorable, I still haven't come across a situation where pelting somebody with a water balloon hasn't been funny.
